Making an impact

The two founders of OMD, Paul Humphreys and Andy McCluskey first met when they were enrolled in a school in Meols. The two later went on to play music in different groups but in September of 1978, they decided to form a group, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark. The duo began to play gigs in different clubs and bars including, the Eric’s Club in Liverpool. They recorded a single and in 1979 that track, Electricity came out and it became a hit. It received massive airplay throughout the United Kingdom and New Musical Express called it, “the best example of Factory Records to date – excellent, melodic, synthesiser pop."

Satisfied by the positive feedback, the duo decided to release new music. This led to Andy and Paul working with their friends, Malcolm Holmes and Martin Cooper on OMD’s first album and in 1980, they released their self-titled studio record. It peaked at the twenty seventh spot on the UK Albums chart and received three stars out of five from AllMusic. Moreover, Melody Maker described their album as, “Unpretentious, tuneful and unceasingly pleasant." This LP was also certified gold in the United Kingdom.

In the same year, OMD’s sophomore studio effort, ‘Organization’ hit the music stores. It landed at the sixth spot on the UK Albums chart and was included in New Musical Expresses’ list of the ’50 Best Albums of 1980.’

Grabbing the attention of the world

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark released their third album, ‘Architecture & Morality’ in 1981. It became their first record to be awarded platinum certification in the U.K. Moreover, this LP also received airplay in the United States. ‘Architecture & Morality’ is one of their most popular works to date and it was also mentioned in the book, ‘1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. It also featured a single, Maid of Orleans (The Waltz Joan of Arc) which charted at the first spot in countries like, Germany, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands.

After that, OMD dropped two back-to-back gold selling records, ‘Dazzle Ships’ and ‘Junk Culture.’ Both enjoyed great commercial and critical success. Moreover, these records also allowed the band to build a loyal fan following in foreign countries. In 1991, the group spawned its eighth studio effort, ‘Sugar Tax’ which became OMD’s second album to be certified platinum by the BPI.

The Punishment of Luxury

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark disbanded in 1996 but the passion for music brought the band together in 2006. Four years after their reformation they put out their album, ‘History of Modern’ which once again received great response in the United Kingdom.

The band’s latest studio effort, ‘The Punishment of Luxury’ hit the shelves on September 1, 2017. It reached fourth spot on the UK Albums chart and also enjoyed success in the United States, which is why the band is making its way to the country in 2018 to support it. The group will start its tour by performing the first show in Washington on March 6th. They will then go on to play shows in cities like, New York, Chicago and Denver before OMD ends its road trip on April 14th.
